At Isoraka, Madagascar, the Spanish Honorary Consulate hosted a National Day event bringing together Spanish citizens, Spanish-speaking Malagasy people, and Latin American residents.
The event, held on October 11th in anticipation of the October 12th holiday, showcased art and encouraged cultural exchange at Hakanto House.
The celebration commemorates Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Caribbean in 1492, an event also known as “Hispanic Day.” Organisers chose Hakanto House, a cultural project initiated by Honorary Spanish Consul Hasnaine Yavarhoussen, as a venue to promote these cultural exchanges. Attendees shared Spanish tapas and sangria while celebrating a shared cultural heritage. The Spanish language unites hundreds of millions of people worldwide and connects Spain with communities in Latin America and Madagascar.
